The Board of Directors of Redlands Community Hospital last night awarded a $2,352,000 contract to Donald, McKee and Hart, Redlands contractors, for the construction of a 51-patient bed addition and remodelling work on the present structure. Donald, McKee and Hart were the low bidders when bids were opened March 17. Since that time the hospital board has been revising plans to scale down costs without lessening design quality. Under the action taken last night, further negotiations will be conducted on four items. Construction will not get under way until papers connected with the long - term financing have been recorded. It is expected that ground will be broken in about one month. To complete the building of the five - story tower at the corner of Fern avenue and Terracina boulevard will take 480 calendar days from the start of construction. That would mean that the facility could be put into use in September 1966. "This is a major step forward in this sorely needed project," Lewis I. Pierce, president of the hospital board said today. "We are doing everything possible to expedite the program because of the overcrowded conditions in our present 98-bed hospital. "The board has received a bid of $135,400 to complete the fourth floor of the new tower. This would add another 20 beds and we believe from our projections of the demand for hospital service that these beds will be needed at the time we open the addition in 1966. "We are now studying ways of doing this work. In addition, if possible, we hope to do the plastering on the fifth floor. It would cost less to do it as part of the current program and would obviate the inconvenience and mess that would be created by doing the work when the building was in use. "Your hospital is able to proceed with the expansion because of the wholehearted support we have had from people in all walks of life in the community. "Our financial appeal is meeting with a wonderful response. We still need to reach a figure of $500,000 to properly finance the project. "All those who are working in the drive are urged to contact every prospect on the list. Anyone who wishes to assist this worthy cause may telephone the hospital campaign office, 792-5065 and arrange for a volunteer worker to call." Deputies find monkey on monkeysh/ne The sheriff's sub-station in Yucaipa was involved in a bit of monkey business early today. Dale Chamberlin telephoned about 7:42 a.m. and told deputies a small, tan monkey with a long tail was swinging from tree-to-tree outside his home at 12367 15th street. Deputies who investigated Redlands man hurt when forced off road A Redlands man was injured today when his motorcycle was forced off Redlands boulevard intentionally by a car carrying four or five men which sped away without stopping, police reported. The victim, William B. Beverly Jr. of 327 High street, suffered knee, hand and leg abrasions when his motorcycle plunged down an embankment bordering Redlands boulevard near Texas street about 8:30 a.m. Beverly, who was not hospitalized, told police one of four or five men in a light green 1958 Buick sedan shouted at him before the car veered toward his motorcycle as he was riding home from work. According to police, Beverly was unable to account for the seemingly unprovoked incident, which was sault with (the car). listed as a deadly an as- weapon EDISON DIPLOMA - Arthur Berry, right, of 255 Judson street, receives o diploma and congratulations from R.

Deputies said a humane officer would be sent to the area to pick it up. Mission land stiii to be condemned The Redlands school board means to continue its condemnation proceedings on a piece of land needed for a future Mission district high school despite a sharp reduction in the owner's asking price. This became clear last night as the Trustees adopted a resolution ordering the condemnation of a 13.86-acre parcel situated on a proposed school site along Redlands boulevard at Bryn Mawr avenue. Owner Donald J. Daniels this week offered the land to the district for a total price of S125,- 450 with the condition that he be allowed to farm its citrus groves for five years. Two weeks ago, he had asked $137, 000 for the land. District officials counterec with an offer of $122,450 for thej land, its irrigation water and the five year farming rights. School superintendent Dr. H. Fred Heisner recommended proceeding with the condemnation. "We need to be careful about paying more than we believe is a fair price," Dr. Heisner said. "Otherwise, we can be pushed into paying a higher price on other land." Redlands Daily Facts Wed., April 28, 1965 - 5 Through RHS campus School board approves Fern avenue mall plan Redlands High school students last night won a nine-year fight ;o close Fern avenue where it crosses their campus and replace it with a landscaped mall. The students gained final school board approval for the proposal after student leaders turned out to present the plan and urge its adoption. Some 35 students appeared at ;he school board meeting to iear the Trustees approve the mall concept as well as dedicate land for the widening of Church street between Citrus avenue and Redlands boulevard. The City Council, which approved the mall last week, made the Church street widening a condition of its acceptance of the Fern closure. The city fathers plan to improve the safety of the Church street-Redlands boulevard-Fern avenue interesection at the same ime the mall is being built. Plans are to merge Church with Fern before Church reaches Redlands boulevard. Barry Miller, chairman of a student mall committee, told the board members that the mall is expected to cost about $37,000 in addition to standard improvements on sewers and other items in connection with such a project. Most of these funds, he indicated, will come from.private contributions. "We already have committments from many businesses and individuals who are willing to donate to a mall," Miller said. Miller displayed an artist's rendering of the proposed mall which showed a park-like area with grass, shrubs and a fountain extending from Redlands boulevard almost to the school administration building. Near the administration building was a parking area, which extended to Citrus avenue. Miller, who said the plan was demonstrate the current deterioration of Fern avenue. The City Council's approval of the mall came in response to student requests presented on Civic Day March 30 when students temporarily replaced city officials. The Council agreed to abandon Fern avenue and spend $30,300 to improve the three-way intersection. School Superintendent Dr. H. Fred Heisner said City Manager R. P. Merritt Jr. indicated the city may not be able to start work on its part of the bargain this fiscal year. "But they'll get started on it as soon as possible," Dr. Heisner added. The movement to close Fern avenue began as early as 1956 when the city and the school board nearly, but not quite, reached agreement on the issue. Then, hi 1963, the Council agreed to close the street dur- prepared with professional help,-Tag school hours at the request also distributed photographs to I of Civic Day student speakers.
